MorphoTrust USA and Confirm Inc. announced an expanded relationship in the commercial identity and authentication sector to offer scalable identity solutions to the commercial and consumer marketplace at an accelerated pace.

Under their latest agreement, MorphoTrust named Confirm as a go-to-market partner in the commercial ID and identity authentication sector. Confirm will integrate certain MorphoTrust biometric and document authentication technology with its own cloud-based document and identity authentication technologies to enable commercial businesses to authenticate physical IDs including driver's licenses, state identification cards and passports.

There are a wide variety of applications for the commercial sector to use technology that requires authenticating government issued IDs. This type of authentication is critical for any type of high-trust transaction. With MorphoTrust's best-in-class technology a key component of our engine, we bring a great deal of trusted value to the commercial market.

"We are excited by our newly expanded partnership with Confirm," said MorphoTrust CEO and Confirm Advisory Board member Bob Eckel. "Their strategic approach and deep understanding of the commercial market make Confirm well-positioned to enable new ID authentication use cases for the commercial marketplace that will resonate with consumers."

These technologies can be embedded into customer-facing applications using the combined SDKs and APIs offered by Confirm. Their flexibility allows for the integration of additional, third-party APIs when greater authentication capabilities are required for higher-trust and higher-risk transactions, making these solutions easily customizable for business needs and use cases across a wide range of industries.
